Richard Thompson

Thick as thieves the last of leaves
In the winter sun
Holding fast this freezing branch
Is home to us
Step, step right over the line
and onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
Interlude: Am - F
Counting stars and passing cars
On the interstate
The end is near I feel it dear,
But I am not afraid
Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
But you say you're getting tired
You're tired and so am I
When you follow from behind
Interlude: C - F (x2)
Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
Interlude: C
But you say you're getting tired
You're tired and so am I
When you follow from behind...
Interlude: Am
